The Delaware County Courthouse & Park Police Department (Commonly known as "The Delaware County Park Police") is a county-wide police department, responsible for providing police services for all parks, physical property, and government buildings of Delaware County, Pennsylvania. This is the only police department in Delaware County that has county-wide jurisdiction, as every municipality has either its own police department or is patrolled by the Pennsylvania State Police.

Under the direction of Chief Samuel Ziviello, there are sixty two officers in the department who maintain foot and vehicle patrols twenty-four hours a day, throughout the year. The officers continue their training through in-service training, as well as courses offered by the District Attorney's Office and the Police Academy at Delaware County Community College.
